Job Description

This is an opportunity to join a top-notch Design Team with Renesas’ leading Performance Computing Power product line. As part of one of Renesas’ most prominent Design Groups, this Design Intern will work on next-generation IC products for analog and power applications. Candidates will design complex blocks that include various analog and digital control circuitry. Candidates should have a strong understanding of basic analog design concepts such as current mirrors, single and two-stage amplifiers, and current/voltage references. Verilog/RTL design coursework is a plus. Analog and Mixed-signal verification coursework is desired.

Responsibilities:

• Perform transistor level design of analog/power circuits for brand new and derivative complex power management chips.
• Specification and design of CMOS/BCD analog and power circuits meeting performance, area, power, and timescale constraints.
• Interface with layout, verification, test, product, and application engineers to successfully bring new products from initial concept through release to production.
• Participate in discussions and draft documents of technical issues and other design aspects with internal teams and customers.
• Work with mixed signal verification engineers to come up with complex test scenarios for pre-silicon verification to meet datasheet parameters and product requirements.
• Help develop AMS, SystemVerilog or Verilog-real behavioral models for your circuits.
• Develop detailed design documents and help write chip level documents and collateral.
• Hold and participate in key design reviews and completion of various checklists.

Qualifications

• BSEE required (MSEE/PHD preferred)
• Must have design exposure/coursework with several of the following: precision amplifiers, bandgap references, switching regulators, LDOs, DAC, ADC.
• DC-DC Converter course work preferred.
• Design course work in CMOS/BICMOS is required.
• Knowledge of Mixed-Signal Cadence tools is preferred, should have used it during School work.
• Must have good written and verbal cross-functional communication skills.
• Must be a team player and yet be an independent thinker with strong design fundamentals.
• Familiarity with bench tools and ability to debug complex silicon issues
